The Foxes defeated the Blues both at home in the league and in the final of the Emirates FA Cup last season, but fell to a slender reverse at Stamford Bridge, and it is Thomas Tuchel's men who currently lead the top flight standings after 11 matches.
Ahead of Saturday's 12:30pm kick-off on Filbert Way, here's some key things you need to know...
Who's starring on LCFC TV?
Matchday Live, a free broadcast accessible on LCFC.com and @LCFC social media, begins at 11am on Saturday, with presenter Dan Bates in the company of Foxes favourites Gerry Taggart and Tony Cottee – both winners of the League Cup with the Club in 2000.
A 90-minute preview show will get the Foxes faithful ready for kick-off, with news and views, plus pre-match analysis and opinion, before live match commentary from the Filbert Way press box. Matt Elliott, Leicester's match-winner at Wembley 21 years ago, will join James Fielden on the mics.
What's the officiating team?
Paul Tierney will be the man with the whistle on Saturday, assisted by Constantine Hatzidakis and Neil Davies. The fourth official is Craig Pawson. VAR, on the other hand, will be overseen by Jarred Gillett and Harry Lennard.

What happened last time against the Blues?
While the Foxes were beaten 2-1 at Stamford Bridge in May, a weekend earlier, Youri Tielemans struck from distance to write his name into Leicester City folklore as the Club lifted the FA Cup.
In the last home encounter with Chelsea, meanwhile, Wilfred Ndidi and James Maddison found the net in a 2-0 victory, which put City top of the Premier League standings in January.
